2015 Annual babble awards

It's time to celebrate our own here at babble. So why don't we start off by choosing a few categories such as most congenial poster, the most activist poster who campaigns for some kind of social change, and a few other categories. Once we have half a dozen good categories (let's keep this positive - OK) then we can begin to add names to the categories, and after a certain period of time we can close the nominations and then vote for the best in the respective categories.
Here are a couple of suggested categories to start off with:
Most congenial poster
Most activist who campaigns for some kind of socal change poster
Who would like to suggest some additional categories?

Oh thought of another, not sure exactly how to phrase it but something along the lines of "kiss of death award" - for the poster most likely to have killed of a thread by merely posting in it. And I think this one should be quantifiable.

Lets not forget the technical awards - best feats of revisionism, relativism, and popular psychology springs to mind.
Have to save best dramatic performance for the end, of course.
(and excuse me for blowing the open secret, but my guess that there will be no nominees - just thinly-veiled caricatures)

Nice idea, but I'm moving to rabble reactions (although one day, perhaps, this contest will become important enough to make the national news). I also changed the title from "rewards" to "awards," unless NorthReport is planning to fund the winners' prize packs and gift bags.
Keep it clean folks. I am trying to stifle my sniggering, but keep it clean for the love of Ford.

I'm nominating Catchfire, and asking him to close this thread.

As is common in Montréal, our "basement" is a crawl space.

He probably intends to re-gift the rabble swag package for $5.00 a month donors.
